the moments we share.

tonight i'm going to a wake. a good person died this week. if you read my last post, it's the same person. his name is jay. my heart is breaking for his wife of 3 years. 3 years? that's the next one for andrew and i. boy does that make you think.

i wasn't extremely close to jay, but knew him well enough to mourn the loss of his life. i value people a great deal. time passes between friendships but i usually remember the person with the fondness of when i last spent time with them. i love a lot more than the world around me realizes, i think. moving on. big or small, we share memories and life moments with other people. it's strange to me when those people just cease to be alive.

warning: repeated story (kind of). one time jay and i watched "the lion, the witch and the wardrobe" together. let's just make one thing clear - i'm the worst person to watch the chronicles of narnia with. i've read them all at least 20 times each and love them to bits. i also vocally criticize what movies to do my precious books, much to the dismay of those trying to enjoy it. well, that time i met my match and we had the best (most annoying to others) time analyzing everything we liked and disliked.

after the wake i'm going to meet up with family at a baseball game. talk about contrast. but maybe it might be just a little more meaningful, to have time with andrew and his (our) family and share some laughs, and hopefully eat a snowcone.

here's to each moment we share with others. let them be remembered.
